This suggests that early modern humans interbred with Neandertals

We only had a few drinks.

I think they meant "Neanderthals are part of the first family."

Neanderthals are part of the human family

Just in the brother-in-law ranks though, for some curious reason.

This theme is picked up in the pages of New Scientist, and especially noteworthy

The IPCC's reliance on Hasnain's 1999 interview with NS has was highlighted by Fred Pearce, the journalist who carried out the original interview for the New Scientist-World misled over Himalayan glacier meltdown.

The effort for some 200 years is to find the stepping stones from a piece of ape to us. Very smart people want to believe they came from monkeys. I would rather believe we came from dirt or from a space man than to believe it was an ape.

Where is the DNA results? It is the same vault as Obama’s birth certificate. Lost forever.

However, the Sumarians have dynasties dating back 350,000 years ago. So, 400,000 years ago, very intelligent People were on the earth. Oops!

This cannot be true, We came from stupid apes that ate a balance diet and did not smoke. Thus, we now have humans who smoke, drink and mess around. I can see the connection.

They may find that some of our people begat the Neanderthals and they are really “throwbacks”, the ones civilization sends away less they pollute the population.

Can’t have that. We cannot have a population that is too stupid to be in th UN.

Or can we?

Enough already.

Now that the Ida and Ardie show is over it's time for a new season of “I Married a Neanderthal!”, the story of the red haired stranger who tries to prove he is the son of Tarzan and not his chimp, Cheeta.

"By comparing this composite Neandertal genome with the complete genomes of five living humans from different parts of the world, the researchers found that both Europeans and Asians share 1% to 4% of their nuclear DNA with Neandertals. But Africans do not.

This suggests that early modern humans interbred with Neandertals after moderns left Africa, but before they spread into Asia and Europe.

The evidence showing interbreeding is "incontrovertible," says paleoanthropologist John Hawks of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, who was not involved in the work. "There's no other way you can explain this."

This suggestion that humans and Neanderthals "share 1% to 4% of their nuclear DNA," is necessarily false, and one has to wonder if it's not just someone's political agenda masquerading as science.

Humans and Neanderthals do not share 1% to 4% of their nuclear DNA. We share about 99.9% with Neanderthals, the same as shared amongst other humans.

The nuclear DNA differences between humans and Neanderthals is not 1% or 4%, it's one-tenth of one percent. In terms of actual numbers, 3 million "base pairs" out of 3 billion total are different. And that's the same number as differences amongst various modern humans.

If there are some identical DNA base pairs shared by Neanderthals, Europeans and Asians, but not Africans, that number must be much smaller than one-tenth of one percent.

None of which is intended to deny that our horny-goat ancestors were just as likely to hanky-pank indiscriminately as we are. It's just that the results were not as significant as those 1% to 4% numbers suggest.

Earlier reports suggested that Neandertals were sufficiently distinct from humans for them to be classified as a separate species of Homo.

Based on that photo I’d say they died out from not using sunscreen.

What!
No picture of Helen Thomas?
I thought that was mandatory in this type of post.
